Alexander Zverev is set to make career history after confirming his appearance at a tournament he’s never played before.
Zverev revealed a worrying injury issue after losing to Taylor Fritz at the Six Kings Slam, but he’s still slated to appear at the final tournaments of the year.
The German star will first appear at the Vienna Open, where he will play Britain’s Jacob Fearnley in the opening round.
Before the 2025 season ends, Zverev will achieve a career first as he’s signed up for an illustrious tournament.
Alexander Zverev is set for his first Davis Cup Finals
Zverev has been confirmed as one of the five players who will represent Germany at the Davis Cup Finals in Bologna, Italy.
The German will appear alongside Jan-Lennard Struff, Yannick Hanfmann, Kevin Krawetz, and Tim Putz as the nation looks for their first win since 1993.
Germany will compete against Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Spain, France, Czech Republic, and the winner of the last two years, Italy at the event.
Zverev has played seven Davis Cup ties previously, having made his debut for Germany in 2016, but he’s never played in the Finals.
The Germans’ last appearance came in 2023, where he defeated Stan Wawrinka, but lost to Marc-Andrea Huesler as Switzerland beat Germany 3-2.
Which players will compete at the 2025 Davis Cup?
